My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Jake is a very special dog, he is very smart and very intuitive of your moods and behaviors. He would do best in a home with a big yard to roam and guard but needs to be an inside dog. He is very playful but due to his size does not have a lot of endurance to play hard for very long. He enjoys taking my socks and running from me when I try to get them back. He is very large so I do not think he would do well in a home with small children. He does well with my son (17) and a 7, and 14 y/o. He follows a routine very well. I have not successfully been able to ever kennel him during the day I tried a pop-up crate when I first got him but he busted out of it before I could get out of the front door. He does not like to be trapped he does better if allowed to roam the house. Do to his size I recommend him being monitored around small children and not having any toys out. He becomes overly stimulated and excited when kids are running and screaming. He may knock them down by accident.
